Easy End of the Year Gifts for Students {FREE Gift Tags}

Can you believe the end of the school year is right around the corner? There is always so much to do as the year unwinds. Assessments, report cards, planning, packing and purging your classroom, field trips, oh and you’re still supposed to teach in there too! On top of all of that, I like to give my students a little something when they leave me for the summer. Here you’ll find several simple and cost effective easy end of the year gifts for students.

We are all busy, I get that! So I put together a few inexpensive and easy end of the year gifts for students. These ideas were all found in the Target Dollar Spot, so that’s about $1 a kid. With the exception of the round bubble tag {sorry I wanted it to look like a bubble!!!}, the rest of these are easy prep. Just print, give a quick snip, and you’re ready to go. Hopefully this post will help you cross one small thing off your to-do list!

In no particular order, here’s some inexpensive and easy end of the year gifts that you can put together in no time flat!

First up is a set of mini erasers. Mini erasers are magical. Kids LOVE them {and teachers do too!}. So they make a perfect end of the year gift for students. You can use washi tape to adhere the tag, or tie a ribbon like I did. If you can’t find the ice cream ones at Target, I included a generic gift tag in the download {which can be found at the bottom of this post} that can be used for any erasers.

Another kid favorite, sidewalk chalk!! You can guarantee that I will be in the driveway this summer drawing right along side of the kids. And probably laying on stomach while I’m at it!! Hahaha! The labels are about the same size as the chalk containers {also found at Target} so I just used some clear tape to adhere the label to the container.

Another oldie but goodie are sunglasses. You can leave them in the package and adhere the label to the plastic bag.

Or you can take them out of the plastic, punch a hole in the corner, and tie a ribbon like in the picture above.

Check out these cutie patootie note pads. Is it okay to admit that I wanted to keep some of these for myself?!! For $1 you get a click pen and a little themed sticky note set. Not a bad deal and super appealing to kids! I’ve found them in four designs: donuts, popsicles, sharks, and hamburgers.

I made a generic gift tag to keep you from running to 18 different Targets to find a class set of shark post-it notes. You’re welcome!!! Haha! 🙂

Here’s an idea for bubble wands. This tag will work for any kind of bubbles.

This one might be one of my favorites. These are flashlights!! How cool is that?!? You can’t really tell from the picture, but they have a long cord attached to them so students can wear them as a necklace. These come in four designs as well: hamburgers, pizza, donuts, and popsicles. You press the shape and the LED flashlight comes on.

I left the tag on this one generic, again to save you from running around looking for class sets! The gift tags are the width of the cardboard packaging so I just stapled the tags on, over the cardboard.

And then last but not least is this bucket set with a shovel. This is great if you have some odd and ends that you want to send home. Maybe a book, a review packet and a packet of crayons, etc. I send home my June Morning Work as a summer review. This bucket and tag are pretty generic so you can use it as needed!
